Diaphragm Resection and Reconstruction through a Single-Port VATS
Loading player ... The player requires Flash Player plugin
Case description
Lung cancer involving diaphragm requieres diaphragmatic resection which necessitates reconstruction to avoid respiratory compromise or the displacement of abdominal contents into the chest. Often the diaphragm can be reconstructed primarily, but with larger or complete resections, reconstruction with synthetic material or autologous tissues is the most appropriate choice. Here we present a video of a lung cancer in the right lower lobe involving the diaphragm. A uniportal VATS lower lobectomy was performed with resection and reconstruction of the diaphragm.
